more random stuff

Ok so that last entry didn't spark a convo like I was hoping, ah well. So work is still boring and I did this thing from an email of a coworker today. Normally I don't buy into this stuff, but well I was bored and it was kind of interesting. So check this out. The results for me surprised me, and made me think that I know I have NO clue how others view me, versus how I view myself.

I scored a 43, which that particular description I never thought of
myself as. I see myself more along the lines of the very last one. At
least that's how I view myself, but I have no idea how others view me
really. I usually seem to be wrong on that I guess. Anyway, it's kind
of a fun thing to do, so check it out since so far you have NO idea what i'm talking about!;)

Below is Dr Phil's test. (Dr. Phil scored 55; he did this test on Oprah
- she got a 38.) Some folks pay a lot of money to find this stuff out!

Read on, this is very interesting!

Don't be overly sensitive! The following is pretty accurate and it only
takes 2 minutes. Take this test for yourself and send it to your
friends.

pen or pencil and paper ready. This is a real test given by the Human
Relations Dept. at many of the major corporations today.

OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should "handle with
care."
You're seen as vain, self-centered, and who is extremely dominant.
Others may admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don't
always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.

51 TO 60 POINTS: Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather
impulsive personality; a natural leader, who's quick to make decisions,
though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and
adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes
chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company
because of the excitement you radiate.

41 TO 50 POINTS: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing,
practical, and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the
center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to
their head.
They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone
who'll always cheer them up and help them out.

31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful &
practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not
a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's
extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty
in return.
Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your
trust In your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get
over if that trust is ever broken.

21 TO 30 POINTS: Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see
you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It
would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on
the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully
from every angle and then, usually decide against it. They think this
reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.

UNDER 21 POINTS: People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive,
someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make
the decisions & who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or
anything! They see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don't
exist. Some people think you're boring. Only those who know you well
know that you aren't.
